repair mode is entered after packets are sent. the process is:
1. client sends packets
2. client reveives dup-ack and increace sacked_out
3. client enter repair mode and set TCP_SACK_SEEN
4. retransmit_timer expires and enter_loss and increace lost_out
5. tcp_left_out(tp->sacked_out + tp->lost_out) is greater than packets_out and triggers the warning

yes, the warning is caught by a fuzzers,  please refer to the attachment.
